That style of code is totally ugly and unusable. What if your original list of data erroneously switched two characters and you now have to swap the last and next-to-last character? This coding style is flawed in that aspect. You should use the following coding style instead:
push (@Hibbs_Daglish_Schwartz_Vroom, ""
. chr(0b1010110)
. chr(0b1110010)
. chr(0b1101111)
. chr(0b1101111)
. chr(0b1101101)
);
Actually I use this coding style when manipulating SQL SELECT statements:
SELECT monkey, bananas from my_table
where 1 = 1
and flung_poo is null
and size > 800
;

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
